Default RE: What should I do about this guy?

If these are only small plots , is he making 90% of his living from them? If not he is in violation!!! If the local warden has no interest then go over his head , but it is wise to bring a pettition signed by local sportsmen and clubs. This maybe difficult if there is no state land handy. If the area is red tagged I believe he can only shoot 2 deer per month for every 5 tillable acres. I could be wrong but may wanna check into it. I have no qualms w/ a farmer who is being " run out by deer" shooting some . But some do go to excess, but a living off a farm is a tough enough prospect in this economy w/o added pressure!! Maybe try to bury the hatchet and see if an agreement can be reached. If they are really so much a problem then by gones should not be an issue. See if you can get together to legally releive him of does and try to leave the bucks as with most areas in our state the balance is probably way outta wack. Killing the does in our experience is much more helpful to both parties!!!! Just my two cents , but are the avenues I would persue!!!
